Waiting in Crespano Limited Edition Photograph

Waiting in Crespano is a limited edition photograph that captures a unique moment, reflecting the intersection of art and everyday life. This conceptual piece, presented as a pigment print on Fine Art paper and mounted on dibond, is unframed and includes a Certificate of Authenticity. Part of the ‘Break the Mold’ project, this work serves as both an artistic statement and a testament to the heritage of Nove di Bassano, Italy. The photograph features empty ceramic vases that evocatively allude to the abandoned factories of the region, embodying a narrative of nostalgia and transformation. The nearly life-size presentation creates a striking illusion, as if the vases are about to emerge into the viewer’s space—effectively materializing a memory. The inherent beauty of the white ceramic forms is highlighted through their deliberate asymmetry and wobbly silhouettes, reminiscent of the nuances found in a Giorgio Morandi painting. Each vase is inspired by the local towns and rivers that surround the ceramic atelier, adding layers of meaning and connection to the imagery. This distinctive photographic work invites contemplation, celebrating both the craftsmanship of ceramics and the broader critique of mass production.
